Graphene oxide를 ZnCl₂:NaCl 전해질과 함께 교반한 후 순환 전압전류법에 의해 전기화학적으로 제막하여 유기태양전지용 전자수송층 제막과정을 단순화하고 이를 갖는 유기태양전지를 제작하였다. 소자의 구조는 FTO/ZnO:graphene 전자수송층/P3HT:PCBM 광활성층/PEDOT:PSS 정공수송층/Ag이다. ETL의 형태 및 화학적 특성은 주사전자현미경(scanning electron microscopy, SEM), X선 광전자 분광법(X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, XPS), 라만 분광법으로 확인하였다. XPS 측정결과 ZnO 금속산화물 및 탄소결합이 동시에 확인되었고, 라만 분광법에서 ZnO와 graphene 피크를 확인하였다. 제작한 태양전지의 전기적 특성을 솔라시뮬레이터로 측정하였고 0.05 V/s의 속도로 2회 제막한 ETL 소자에서 1.94%의 가장 높은 광전변환효율을 나타내었다.

Morphology evolution of the active layer in bulk hetero-junction organic photovoltaic is modeled and visualized. The width of the phase domain can be predicted using the relationship of characteristics length and evolution time of the process. The 3D numerical simulation of the PCBM/P3HT blend morphology evolution with respect to time is presented. It is observed that the domain width of composition phase can be predicted by using the relationship between value of characteristic length R(t) and evolution time t.

Polymer solar cells are fabricated using electrospray (e-spray) deposition process. It shows comparable performance with reference devices, and has different characteristics according to the thickness of the active layer: In the case of the devices with higher fill factor, it shows relatively lower current density, and vice versa. These films are characterized by atomic force microscopy measurement. The results indicate that the comparable power conversion efficiency made by e-spray results from the 'solvent annealing effect' by process conditions and the different thin film property is caused by the degree of self-organization of the polymer.

$TiO_2$의 계면적을 넓힘으로써 태양전지의 특성을 향상시키기 위해 정렬도가 높은 나노 기공 (nanopore, NP) 이산화티타늄 ($TiO_2$)을 이용하여 복합 태양전지를 제작하였다. Polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA)를 사용한 nanoimprinting lithography (NIL) 기술을 이용하여 NP $TiO_2$를 제작하였으며. 광활성층으로는 poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT)와 [6,6]-phenyl $C_{61}$ butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM)을 사용하였다. NP $TiO_2$를 이용한 태양전지의 전력변환효율이 1.49%로 표면이 고른 소자의 효율인 1.18%에 비해 26% 가량 증가하였다. 이와 같은 효율 향상의 원인은 $TiO_2$와 광활성층의 계면이 증가되어 전하의 생성과 분리가 용이해졌기 때문인 것으로 사료된다.

We report solution-processed organic trilayer solar cells consisting of poly (3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT), a conjugated polyelectrolyte (CPE) and [6,6]-phenyl-C61-butyric acid methyl ester (PCBM), wherein the effect CPE layer thickness on device properties was investigated. The current-voltage characteristics under illumination and dark as well as photoluminescence were characterized using various concentrations (0.02, 0.1, and 0.3wt%) of to deposit the CPE interlayer between the donor and acceptor layers. We also investigated the influence of molecular dipole moments in the trilayer solar cells by external stimuli. These results provide an experimental approach for investigating the influence of interfacial dipoles on solar cell parameters when placed between the donor and acceptor and allow us to obtaining fundamental information about the donor/acceptor interface in organic solar cells.

Transparent and conducting aluminum-doped ZnO electrodes were fabricated by atomic layer deposition methods. The electrode showed the lowest resistivity of $5.73{\times}10^{-4}{\Omega}cm$ at a 2.5% cyclic layer deposition ratio of Trimethyl-aluminum and Diethyl-zinc chemicals. The electrodes showed minimum resistivity when deposited at a temperature of $225^{\circ}C$. The electrode also showed optical transmittance of about 92% at 300 nm. An organic solar cell made with a 300-nm-thick aluminum-doped ZnO electrode exhibited 2.0% power conversion efficiency.

We investigated the device performance of bulk heterojunction solar cells depending on the active layer thickness. For the systematic comparison, the polymer solar cells comprising RR-P3HT:PCBM (1:0.8 (wt%:wt%)) blend films with different thickness were characterized by impedance spectroscopy, and J-V measurement in dark and solar simulated illumination. The device with 120 nm thickness of active layer exhibited maximum power conversion efficiency of 3.5 % under AM 1.5 100mW/$cm^2$ illumination condition.

An improved hybrid solar cell was obtained by focusing on the effects of ligand for CdSe nanoparticles, in the active layers. The performance was compared by mixing nanoparticles capped with pyridine or oleic acid for the acceptor material into poly(3-hexylthiophene):[6,6]-phenyl C61 butyric acid methyl ester based active layer. The solar cells with pyridine capped CdSe nanoparticles showed a power conversion efficiency of 2.96% while oleic acid capped CdSe nanoparticles showed 2.85%, under AM 1.5G illumination. Formation of percolation pathways for carrier transport and a reduction in the hopping event resulted in better performance of pyridine capped nanoparticles.

본 연구에서는 대면적 유기태양전지 셀의 제작이 유리하며 공정비용이 저렴한 스프레이 공법을 이용하여 역구조 형태의 유기태양전지의 모든 공정에 적용하여 제작 및 평가했다. 스프레이 코팅 공정은 전자 수송층 ZnO층을 코팅 후 P3HT와 PCBM를 블렌딩 하여 만든 광활성층을 코팅하였다. 그리고 마지막으로 정공 전달층인 PEDOT:PSS층을 코팅한 후 메탈전극을 증착하여 역구조의 유기 태양전지을 제작하였다. 스프레이 코팅 공정으로 만든 유기태양전지는 현재 가장 많이 사용하고 있는 스핀 코팅 공정과 비교 시 유사한 특성을 나타내었다. 스프레이 공정으로 만든 유기 태양전지는 $0.38cm^2$의 면적에서 3.20%의 광변환 효율을 얻었다.

The PEDOT:PSS layer is usually used as hole transporting layer for the polymer bulk heterojunction solar cells. However, the interface between ITO and PEDOT:PSS is not stable and the chemical reaction between ITO and PEDOT can result in degraded device performance. We used the tungsten oxides as a hole transport layer by spin-coating. The $WO_3$ nanoparticles were well dispersed in ammonium hydroxide and deionized water and formed thin layer on the ITO anode. We found that $WO_3$ surface is more hydrophobic than the bare ITO or PEDOT:PSS-coated surfaces. The hydrophobic surfaces promote an ordered growth of P3HT films. A higher degree of P3HT ordering is expected to improve the hole mobility and the lifetime of the device using the tungsten oxide showed better stability compared to the device using the PEDOT:PSS.
